You got it!

The only problem is that my old RR's tended to lean on my
slapstick crashes for much of the content and entertainment
value. With that kinda stuff outlawed for me I gotta find
new stuff, like unusual water crossings, to bring some
interest to my otherwise dreary/non-technical RR's.

Belly-deep water crossings are pretty cool. Be glad they are
not in a fast rushing Coldorado stream. Keep 'em coming,
Rog. BTW, dreary in this NG would be "expert" opinions from
barneys, especially florida barneys.

Ride #3 turned out to be just too technical for us. The
rock gardens were too big with too much of a descent, and
there were rock ledges and broken rock that we just weren't
a good match for. It made a nice hike though. All the way
along I thought about how cool it would be to actually see
riders that could handle this trail make their way along.
This was definitely a case of better safe than sorry.

Number 4 was not nearly as technical, though it had it's
walking spots for us. What had us hiking instead of biking
was the continuous transition from steep climbs to steep
descents, one after another (which kinda makes sense). Just
walking the trail had us huffing and puffing. Later on in
the hike we came to an uphill ramp, the kind that skating
XC skiers use to ascend a really rough slope. Then there
was another section that was pretty much submerged. As this
was a XC trail, and not an old fire road, any riding would
have really rutted the trail. I would have been amazed just
watching riders climb and descend on this trail.

Even though we couldn't ride these trails it was pretty
neat trying to pick the lines and imagining how those of
you that can ride this stuff would have done so.

Nice RR, Bill The mind serves properly as a window glass
rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give an
immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.
